Velo-city2009

Around the world there is a revival of cycling as a mode of urban transportation. Velo-city is an infrastructure solution for urban mobility that offers an alternative model to the unsustainable private automobile system. Velo-city is a highway for bicycles, a network of elevated bikeways that connect distant parts of our cities. It is a system of glass enclosed bikeway tubes that shelter cyclists while making it easier to ride. Velo-city is a breakthrough in transportation infrastructure because it is the only rapid transit system that uses human power as its primary fuel. Its innovation is using the bicycle (the most inexpensive and efficient vehicle we have) and the aerodynamic system that makes cycling easier.
